Year of the Golden Fire Pig

According to the Chinese Zodiac, Baby J will be born in the year of the Pig.

However, this year is a special year. It is not only the year of the pig, but rather THE YEAR OF THE GOLDEN FIRE PIG! According to Chinese folklore, this is an event that occurs once every 600 years and is said that babies born in that year will experience a prosperous and wealthy life.

So, I'm counting on him to carry me through retirement, because the government surely won't be able too!

When a colleague of mine in the Hong Kong office learned of Baby J's impending arrival, she sent this pig as a gift and gesture of the Chinese Zodiac calendar. How thoughtful!

That is great! Loved your comment about retirement. He will also be a Libra, his Auntie Mindi's sign.
